Thanks Womo! I'm sure everyone is curious to know how much I put into the project. I spent around $5,800.00 (some of you probably think I'm crazy!!!) But if you look on this site http://www.battlestargalactica.org/ and click on "what's new" and then click on "Cylon" this one is around $5,000.00. So mine was a 1,000.00 more but that is about what I paid for the original 32 bulb scanner alone! Having the undersuit fabric dyed alone was a $225.00 setup fee plus $18.00 per yard and the total work from my seamstress on the undersuit was $1,220.00, and the original battery belt was $320.00 but I am overall satisfied with everything!

Holy crap Chris. WOW that turned out beautiful. OK we are back on track on our CYLON project now :-) PLEASE email us and LMK what we can do to get the undersuit material and related. Sorry to have missed your BIN auction. Would have bidded on it!!!

Hey Chris if you don't mind making these public I would like to host them, and then insert them into the forum.

Hi Chris, can you just verify whether the armour that you ended up using was from Jim of We Gotta Find Earth?

Thanks in advance,
Patrick

This has got to be the measuring stick from which all other 1:1 non-screen used cylons are judged! Absolutely stunning!! If my cylon project turns out looking anything like the Dexter cylon I'm going to be in good shape. If anyone knows how to get in touch with Chris Dexter please pm me the information! Thanks.

It is a NICE suit... OH YES. Sorry, not sure how to contact chrisd....
But, all the info on being 1:1 is in the fourm in all our topics. The key item to get so close to 1:1 is a big blank check to start your build with

I
Thought forever that was nashslashes tag on
YouTube. It's very well done. It was one of the built that inspired me also. Now I just have to build mine.

The below is From GoldCylon - oops, Dale, you edited Skullbeast's post above with your text (not a reply). I checked the admin logs to double check and sure enough edited. COMPUERS

I guess TapaTalk has a problem.

I could just ban TapaTalk (kidding).
